How Often to Replace Car Lights
The lifespan of light bulbs can vary, but generally, you should do it as soon as they are deemed irreparable. Regular inspections will help identify any bulbs that are on their way to failure before they go out on you completely.
If you notice dim, flickering, cloudy, or overall inoperative lights on your vehicle, please do not hesitate to visit the team at Bernhard Auto Works. We’ll evaluate and test the lights and recommend the best course of action. Our technicians work with honesty and integrity.

Do I have to replace both headlights if only one is out?
Not necessarily, you can replace just the one that's out, though many drivers choose to do both at once.
The reason is that headlight bulbs tend to wear at a similar rate, so if one has failed, the other is often not far behind, and matching brightness on both sides looks and performs better. Bring your vehicle to Bernhard Auto Works in Columbia and we'll let you know whether replacing one or both makes the most sense for you.
Why won't my brake lights turn off?
Brake lights that stay on usually point to a stuck brake light switch near the brake pedal, though it can also be a wiring or sensor issue.
It's worth fixing promptly, since brake lights that never shut off can drain your battery and confuse drivers behind you. Have it checked by the expert
team at Bernhard Auto Works and we'll track down why they're staying on and get them working properly.
Can you adjust or aim my headlights if they're pointing wrong?
Yes, headlights that point too high, too low, or off to the side can be adjusted back to their proper aim.
Correctly aimed headlights matter more than people realize, since misaimed lights reduce your visibility and can blind oncoming drivers. Our hours are Mon-Fri: 7:30 AM - 5:30 PM | Sat-Sun: Closed, so stop by Bernhard Auto Works and we'll get your headlights aimed where they should be.
